DOES ST. GERMAIN NEED AN
OUTDOOR LIGHTING ORDINANCE?
The Town Board occasionally receives complaints from local residents/property owners that "light pollution/trespass" is becoming a problem and that an Outdoor Lighting Ordinance should be enacted. In response to the most recent complaints, a board member has prepared a draft ordinance to start a community conversation about whether such an ordinance is needed. 1st draft outdoor Lighting Ordinance
Your elected town officers would like your input on this topic. If you don't think outdoor lighting needs to be regulated, please let us know. Or, if you think certain types or uses of lighting are becoming a nuisance, please share those details. Emails or letters should be sent to the Town Clerk at either "june.vogel@stgermainwi.gov" or to "PO Box 7, St. Germain WI 54558".
The Board will discuss your input at its February 12th, 2024 meeting. Please arrange for your comments to be received by the Clerk no later than Monday, February 5th so there is time for them to be sent as one package to all board members to review prior to the February 12th meeting.
Attendees at the meeting, whether in person or via Zoom, will also be given an opportunity for brief comments.
Thanks in advance for your input.
